Connecting external assistants
What this is
You can connect an external assistant such as Claude to your XOS account and ask it directly about your XOS data: which tasks are open, what the CRM has on a company or what the organization knowledge holds on a topic. Claude can also create tasks and CRM entries, prepare social media posts and assign work to the marketing agents.
The assistant works with exactly your permissions. What you're not allowed to see in XOS, Claude can't see either.
Enabling (for admins)
The connection is switched off by default for every organization. As an admin, you switch it on:
- Open the Settings (Einstellungen) and choose Organization (Organisation).
- Find the External assistants (Externe Assistenten) section.
- Switch on Allow external assistants (Externe Assistenten erlauben).
Connect Claude
- Open claude.ai in your browser and go to Settings, Connectors.
- Add a custom connector, for example named XOS, with the address https://xos.prozessx.com/api/mcp-server.
- Click Connect. An XOS page opens. If you're not logged in, log in as usual.
- Check on the page where the access goes (claude.ai) and click Allow (Zulassen).
- In Claude, open a new chat and ask, for example: Which open tasks do I have in XOS?
Privacy and disconnecting
What an assistant retrieves goes to its provider unchanged, to Anthropic in the case of Claude. The anonymization XOS applies to its own AI calls doesn't apply here, and processing may take place outside the EU. Every access is logged in XOS. Details are in the privacy policy.
You find your connections in the settings under Organization (Organisation), section External assistants (Externe Assistenten), list Connected to your account (Mit deinem Konto verbunden). Disconnect (Trennen) ends a connection immediately.
